2024 Regenerative Projects:
Enhancing land health by kickstarting regenerative grazing.
Soil sustains life by offering nutrients, water, and support. This project aims to kickstart regenerative grazing on farm, promoting land health through holistic techniques like livestock integration. Thorough assessments help to track progress and empower growers for regenerative outcomes.
Fostering biodiversity and empowering growers.
The goal of this project is to promote biodiversity in New Zealand by educating growers for conservation. Through field days and education, we empower growers to integrate native biodiversity, aiming for nationwide nature-positive outcomes.
Sponsorship of dog training workshops.
Growers count on their dogs for herding across vast stations, an important practice to enable rotational grazing. This is when sheep are strategically moved across various pastures to optimise grazing patterns and pasture health. Training workshops provide growers with opportunities to learn from expert dog trainers, prioritising animal welfare and up-skilling in rotational grazing techniques.
